Özet:

 Sustainable growth and development are of vital importance for states from past to present. In order for growth and development to continue, imports and exports must be realized from secure sources, through secure corridorsroutes and at reasonable prices. For this reason, the security of trade corridors, which countries they border, and the proximity of the distance are very important for faster and more affordable transportation of goods. In the first quarter of the 21st century, the world is going through a period of great change, transformation and crisis. In other words, the world is on the eve of a great birth and is in the throes of labor. The US is no longer the power it once was, the rise of China, the emergence of many medium-sized power centers, and the spiral of problems such as energy, migration, food and water, climate change and global warming are exacerbating the worlds pains. Today, states are trying to take control of trade routes in order to gain superiority and dominance over each other. The reason is to undermine imports and exports, which are the lifeblood of growth and development. In other words, a state tries to increase its dominance over the routes where the import-export cycle, which is the lifeblood of that state, is provided, in order to economically collapse another state, which it sees as a competitorrival. In this context, the main topic of this research is about how international trade routes such as the Belt and Road Initiative, the Development Road Initiative, the Zangezur Corridor, the China-Pakistan Corridor, the India-Middle East-Europe Corridor and the Arctic Sea have caused tensions in the complexity of international relations and what kind of wars they may lead to.

 Geçmişten günümüze sürdürülebilir büyüme ve kalkınma devletler için hayati öneme sahiptir. Büyüme ve kalkınmanın devamlılığı için de ithalat ve ihracat döğüsünün; güvenli kaynaklardan, güvenli koridorlardangüzergâhlardan ve makul fiyata gerçekleştirilebiliyor olması gerekir. Bu sebeple ticaret koridorlarının güvenliği, hangi ülkelere sınırdaş olduğu, malların daha makul fiyata ve daha hızlı ulaştırılabilmesi için mesafenin yakınlığı çok önemlidir. 21. Yüzyılın ilk çeyreğini yaşadığımız bu günlerde, dünya çok büyük değişim, dönüşüm ve buhranlı günlerden geçmektedir. Diğer bir ifadeyle dünya büyük bir doğumun arifesinde olup, adeta sancılar çekmektedir. ABDnin eski gücünde olmaması, Çinin yükselişi, orta ölçekli birçok güç merkezinin ortaya çıkışı başta olmak üzere; enerji, göç, gıda su, iklim değişikliği ve küresel ısınma gibi problemler sarmalı, dünyanın sancılarını daha da arttırmaktadır. Günümüzde devletler birbirlerine karşı üstünlük sağlayabilmek ve birbirleri üzerinde hâkimiyet kurabilmek için ticaret güzergâhlarının kontrolünü ele geçirmeye çalışmaktadırlar. Sebebi ise büyüme ve kalkınmanın can damarı olan ithalat ve ihracat dünküsünü baltalamaktır. Diğer bir ifadeyle bir devlet, rakiphasım olarak gördüğü diğer bir devleti ekonomik olarak çökertebilmek için o devletin can damarı olan ithalat-ihracat döngüsünün gerçekleştiği, güzergâhlar üzerinde hâkimiyetini arttırmaya çalışmaktadır. Bu araştırmanın temel konusu; Kuşak Yol Projesi, Kalkınma Yolu Projesi, Zengezur Koridoru, Çin-Pakistan Ekonomik Koridoru, Hindistan-Orta Doğu-Avrupa Koridoru ve Arktik denizi gibi uluslararası ticaret güzergâhlarının, uluslararası ilişkiler karmaşasında ne tür gerginliklere sebebiyet verdiği ve ne tür savaşlara yol açabileceğine ilişkindir.
